Hello there and I am Cyril. I am brand new to this forum and I am glad I found this. Thank you for welcoming to join the party!!! :) I like to be with the LIKE-MINDED FOLKS WHO LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY.
I am an analogue photographer learned and developed my photo skills in Paris France. I had being nearly 25 years of living in France / Paris and had many reasons to get into photography from Paris. I am now based in London and still finding all opportunities to get involved in be active in making photos. My main drive in photography is documenting the city and urban life . Many of my work had been awarded and published in some medias and I am fortunate enough to do several contributions to photo community and collectors and participate in collective photo projects. I have an intensive knowledge in medium format photography/ panoramic photography based on Hasselblad Trix2 camera. Also a dedicated photographer for range finders too. I like say it is great pleasure to meet everyone here who are enthusiastic and dedicated photography on analogue and digital photography.
I love history of photography and my go to camera is Leica M6/ and Leica M. That is my comfortable camera and it never let me down. I do lot of gigs to earn my living and it gives me lot of rooms to stick to what I do in photography. My main other hobby is calligraphy and cooking and I am learning some extra skills in lettering to add an combine those into photography. This is something new in Photography that I am looking into. Thank you and I am gong to expose more about me in the time to come.
 
Welcome, from southeast Wisconsin, USA, and thanks for writing up a proper introduction!

I started in the film era too, but never did much with medium format. I had a brief stint with a Yashica Mat 124 TLR and a Rolleiflex 3.5 Schneider-Kreuznach lens.

My favorite film camera is the Rollei 35, followed closely by Nikon N90s. (F90s) I liked the 35/2D and 28-105/3.5-4.5D lenses the best.

You have lived in two of the best cities in the world for street photography. Please share some of your images in the Samples & Galleries.
